    Good thing I’m way more likable as an employee than I am as a shitty poster here lol.

    As I started hanging the first Saturdays are for the Boys banner, I read the message and it rang true. So I’ve been at the strip club since 9 am while my family is doing whatever. Not concerned, this is me time

    If you were going to be fired or were going to be let go in some way, they wouldn't haphazardly postpone the meeting and they definitely wouldn't without rescheduling another time soon after.

    At my work, your manager goes in your office and tells you to go to HR immediately once the decision has been made

    My brain says this. Leaving an employee you were gonna let go multiple days to stew and think about it while maintaining access to all the system seems like it could lead to shit being done to files or something. Not saying I would do that at all.

    Any chance it’s the opposite and you’re going from contract to direct hire?

    That would be the dream. I just haven’t had my hopes up on that with Nissan currently trying to reduce cost anywhere they can. The leaders of my department know that’s been my goal since day one.

    The odds are probably much higher on the “not bad news” side of things but it’s hard not to stress about the worst outcome in today’s environment.

    My thought is if they were terminating your contract you would only meet with people from your contract company but that’s just a thought

    I heard Nissan instituted a new policy where they delay the firing several times to check the mental fortitude of the employee. Activity such as running to a message board is a major red flag and now they are going to fire you live on the next global company all hands meeting

    Well my last day with Nissan is March 31st. Sounds like they are laying off basically all their contract employees, at least on the admin side of things.
    30 day notice is better than nothing but no severance damn sure sucks.
    Gonna finish updating my resume tonight and get started searching in the morning.

    Damn, sorry man. It's starting to feel like we're all just working between layoffs (if we're working at all. I'm one month post-layoff too). Do whatever you can to use the next month finding your next job during the work day.

    Yea I’m not gonna screw over the two analysts that are left and gonna be stuck with double the workload now but it’s gonna be real hard to worry about producing new dashboards and shit right now.
    Definitely not going to the office 4 days a week now. Maybe once a week at best. Gotta save that gas money.

    And appreciate it. I’m sure I’m not the only one going through it now and probably gonna get worse. Thankfully other then looking for job leads I’m not to the point where I have to start worrying about keeping a roof on my head yet.

    There’s does seem to be a ton of analyst postings right now so that makes me a little less stressed.

    I should have put more time into learning SQL.
